Musicman guitars at GC

[unclerico]

I know we get this a lot on the forum, but this reguards availability options.


I went to guitarcenter.com, and they finally brought back the EBMM Petrucci after they took it off like 5 times, and they added the BFR models. It has limited options, only mystic dream, pearl redburst, and pearl blue. It doesn't have the piezo, matching headstock, or inlays options. I was just wondering if EB gives GC only the basic models.

And when I go to the dealer locater, the guitarcenter links aren't clickable. Just wondering what that is about?



Thanks

its about thats what they want to buy...I think that it is tied to MF as they do the fulfillment for the online part

That's what I thought (answered my question too).

 

[unclerico]

So they only want to keep the basic models for sale?

I've never seen a loaded JP in stock. You have to order one thru GC if you want one. Never seen a 7 either.

I was lucky to get mine (loaded) thru them used. I was just after the piezo though. Color and inlays were not important.

Dargie is working on Musicians Friend They have a new buyer. The old buyer used to work for Fender and that was about how big his world was. I met with him and he had this little detectives note pad and scribbled notes all night but he still bought what he wanted...ultimately the buyer decides what you get. THe new buyer wants to know what people want so we will see.....

We don't have any Balls at the GC in Rocklin California. They did have a Stingray and a Sterling though. I wont be shopping for any new guitars until after the holidays, but I really want to try some out. The store is only a year old and they say they will probably start getting more high end stuff now.

I'd probably be fired as a buyer for MF, because all I'd buy are your guitars and basses, BP. That's about how big my world is. Okay, fine, there's room in my world for Bob Taylor's stuff. Good thing I have another job.

Lol same here rob. Don't have an EBMM Yet though.

It would be nice though to walk into guitarcenter or some other store in my area and jam around with an Musicman (Preferably a Petrucci )
